I spent a year and a half living and working overseas. I went from an apartment full of furniture to a single room in a share house. All I owned were the clothes in my cupboard and a laptop. I honestly didn't miss any of my possessions. In many ways I had less than when I was a starving student, but it felt much different because what I did have was the money to buy things if I needed them. Having the ability to buy things I might need or want was more important to me than actually owning them.
